“Statistically, male-to-female transsexuals are about 2.6 times as common as female-to-male transsexuals.”
Patricia S. Churchland, Touching a Nerve: The Self as Brain

Patricia S. Churchland
“La hipótesis predominante es que lo que nosotros, los humanos, llamamos «ética» o «moralidad» es una estructura de conducta social en cuatro dimensiones que viene determinada por la interrelación de distintos procesos cerebrales: (1) el cuidado o la atención a los demás (enraizado en el apego a nuestros familiares y la preocupación por su bienestar),11 (2) el reconocimiento de los estados psicológicos de los demás (basado en las ventajas de predecir la conducta de terceros), (3) la resolución de problemas en un contexto social (por ejemplo, cómo deberíamos distribuir los bienes cuando son escasos, cómo resolver disputas territoriales”
Patricia S. Churchland, El cerebro moral: Lo que la neurociencia nos cuenta sobre la moralidad (Contextos)

Gilles Deleuze
“Instead of linking an active life and an affirmative thinking, thought gives itself the task of judging life, opposing to it supposedly higher values, measuring it against these values, restricting and condemning it. And at the same time that thought thus becomes negative, life depreciates, ceases to be active, is reduced to its weakest forms, to sickly forms that are alone compatible with the so-caIled higher values. It is the triumph of "reaction" over active Iife and of negation over affirmative thought.”
Gilles Deleuze, Pure Immanence: Essays on a Life

Charlie Kaufman
“From here on, I will submit to great art. It will do with me as it sees fit. I will go where it tells me. I will let it in, let it tear me limb from limb, eradicate me, rebuild me in its own image. I will dwell in it as does a subject in a heavenly kingdom. I will never again attempt to own anything: no film, no person, no idea.”
Charlie Kaufman

“The data indicate that just before the eyes make their next jump (saccade), your nonconscious attention scans the next chunk, selects a meaty word for your center of gaze to light on (a word like murder, not a word like indeed), and guides the eye movement accordingly.”
